'In the words that it was forming and the sign said, "The words of the prophets are written on the subway walls and tenement halls" and whispered in the sounds of silence'
Secret Cinema,
Secret Cinema in partnership with Windows Phone and Mind, the mental health charity, presented Milos Forman's 'One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest' at The Princess Louise Hospital in North Kensington, London.
Congratulations on completing the New Wellbeing Foundation programme. We are very heartened by how much you participated and contributed to the programme's success. We are very thankful to you for keeping the nature and details of the programme secret throughout the period.
Princess Louise would have been proud.
Following instructions from Nurse Dorothy Phillips, the patients enrolled on a series of tests online and tuned into our very own radio station, The New Wellbeing Foundation Radio.
A few days before the programme began an electronic mail detailing a telephone number to call to find the meeting point was sent out by Nurse Dorothy Phillips' personal assistant, Miss Jean Louise. Over 6000 patients enrolled in the programme, arriving at Ladbroke Grove Station in the early morning and dead of the night for over ten days.
Thank you for staying quiet on your walk to the hospital, it seems that none of the local residents saw anything.
Inside the hospital was sleeping... there were also some people who never left ward 12.

We would like to thank the community of psychologists and psychiatrists who helped us make this work accurate.
We would also like to thank our partners Windows Phone, Mind, FoolishPeople, Guerilla Science and Paul Noble at popupradio.fm.
Ken Kesey's novel did much to change attitudes to mental health care in the US. Mind, our charity partner allowed us to explore mental health with a positive frame of mind. The charity continues to change perceptions of mental health in the UK, to find out more about their work click here. To donate click here.
